Hey Thyloor,
I like the pose of the peacock.

The image looks a bit under exposed. I guess the light was not good. +ve Exposure Compensation would have helped. Try to get the eye of the bird in focus.

Thanks for sharing.

Nice to see a peacock on the road. Less space on the left would be good. The raised right leg looks nice. A slight head turn in your direction would have enhanced the eye contact. The light seems to be quite bad, else a narrower aperture would have been good for more details. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the critics.

It would have been great if you could have clicked a few seconds before this. That way I think the peacock would have been more to the left and the electric wire would not have appeared in the background. The brick in the foreground doesn't add to the image. You could have avoided the brick if you would have clicked when the peacock was more to the left. Also, a longer focal length would have helped in getting a closer image and avoiding the brick.

In Delhi, one can find these peacocks in a number of gardens. The challenge is to get them in good light infront of a good background.

Cheers,
